Els, Linda H, Marcelo, Mark, Blanca, Laura, and Gabriela endured the heat this past Saturday at the garden.
In
addition to the usual watering, harvesting, and weeding (and trying to
straighten some of the tomato and tomatillo plants!), Mark brought the
weed whacker and worked on the garden borders. We also removed the lambs
quarters, then Marcelo applied some newly sifted compost and used the
broad fork to aerate the soil. Then we planted some greens that Els
had--we don't know the English name, but Els tells us it's a mild and
yummy green!
Food Pantry:
We left two containers with cherry tomatoes (one red, one sungold) and
several green peppers in the fridge for the food pantry (Molly, please
let me know if you find them and whether they made it alright through
Wednesday; if possible, please leave the containers in the toolbox or
keep them somewhere so we can reuse them).
Watering schedule:
Susan
won't be able to water on Mondays anymore but she'll be doing Sundays
instead. Schedule for this week so far (please let the core group of
gardeners know about any changes or if you're able to fill any of the
missing spots):
